J, I was very sorry to get your message about this. I'm still hoping that the database will somehow be found and Starscape saved. It's a great community and I know how much it means to you. Perhaps this just a mistake or misunderstanding.

ReNext is an awesome board, and it's atmosphere is like ours. They're a great group of people, and I'm a member there, too. Great board. Great discussion, and they need their help getting their community built from a previous crash.

J.

Thank you very much. We'd very much like to have Starscape members join us at ReNext, though not at the expense of Starscape. If anybody wants to join, please send me a PM here at TrekBBS first, so I can be on the lookout for you and you don't get purged in the daily Bot attack.

I tried to re reg there the other day, because I couldn't find my account... It never went through.

Sorry about that. You couldn't find your account because of the Apocalypse last year; everything got lost and we had to start from scratch. That won't happen again as we are taking precautions. As for regging, we're now getting around a hundred Bots a day and it's become nearly impossible to spot legitimate applicants unless I know ahead of time. Please register again; I'll be watching for you and I'll activate your account as soon as I spot you.

Really sorry to hear this, J. It would have been nice to know why they shut it down, though.

Well, I bring a little update with my response. It would seem our account was confused with another, and ours was deleted.
Before you say anything about fixing it, they don't have a backup, and it was completely accidental. Since our server, host and software were provided to us free of charge, they don't owe us anything.
